I now simply append empty to it and that fixes it.  Saving the 
stackfile fixes it.

The shift is about big X height for that font.

It is a label with a unique name.  Another label in the same group does 
not have the problem.

I'll look for a funny character.

I think it has been reported that this kind of thing can happen 
depending on the formattedWidth of the text or maybe the number of 
characters, I forgot.
